im so sorry user
what sort of game was it
Joshua Diaz
I have a platformer with buggy collision/physics code (which I wrote from scratch in C...)
If you hold right while jumping against a straight-up vertical wall you'll be able to stand on the top corners of the blocks in the wall
not sure how I'm going to fix this
Kayden Sanchez
I have concepts, but I don't know where to start in execution.
Jaxon Murphy
megaman X type of game, had like 2 levels done and the character movement
Eli Johnson
First, get a standard calculus text and dive in. You should also get linear algebra and discrete math books as well; make sure the discrete text is proof based.
Once you're a couple chapters in to your discrete book (you will want to have covered basic proposition and higher order logic, and basic proofs), you may begin learning programming and computer architecture. As a litmus test, if you don't know what this statement is
∀P((0∈P∧∀i(i∈P-->i+1∈P))-->∀n(n∈P))
you aren't ready to take the reins of a computer.
Now, forget what you do know about computer programming:
First, you learn boolean logic operations
then, you learn transistor logic
then, you learn how to build functional units from logic gates
then, you learn CPU design
then, and only then, you learn assembly language
then, after you have mastered assembly language (not dabbled, but mastered it), you learn C
then, after you have mastered C, you may learn the higher-level languages of your choice, but you will always use C and assembly as your primary languages because everything else is unnecessary bloat.
By this time you should be finished with your first wave of math and ready for the next: abstract algebra, analysis, multivariate and vector calculus, and, after you have progressed a way in those, topology.
Finally, you become familiar with topoi, and study the internal logic of categories
then familiarize yourself with (general) type theory, and its applications to programming. I also recommend studying how to reformulate mathematics in terms of globular categories for use in automatic theorem proving, because there is an inherent programming-like 'feel' to it.

i would love a megaman x like game but with more of an emphasis on platforming. can you do this?
Jacob Davis
I'll see how my first day goes tomorrow. I gotta go to bed and my Companion should be in tomorrow. Got one again after a year and a half
First attempt at a game outside of Gamemaker
Brayden Watson
well I was replaying megaman x4 x5 x6 because those were the ones that I grew up with. I was going based on the level design of those. how they were made for dashes, wall jumping, etc. But after the megaman x thread from today I dont even know what is good or right. I guess I could make a hollow knight type of game but with megaman X powers. In like 9-10 years

Easton Taylor
Calc's not too bad.
As for your statement, it's just saying that in a set, if the existence of 0 is implicit and the existence of increment is implicit, every natural number is in that set. It's the induction of the natural numbers, yeah? Pretty sure it can be implemented similarly in lambda calculus.
I get that this is a bait post, but I'm thinking there might be some good advice in here anyways.
Benjamin Cruz
I'm not making a game, but following a few as they get developed.
Wyatt Rivera
I had an idea and have been prototyping some of the basic systems but I'm not sure the best way to handle the main gimmick.
Christian Bell
"Hi! I'm making a game, and I'm looking to put together a team. All I need are writers, programmers, level designers, artists, animators, musicians, a composer, voice actors..."
James Fisher
Oops
No dev
Nicholas Taylor
I'm taking a break from devving to play sekiro on other games
Dylan Morales
I swear to Allah I'll fuck the next animeposter itt
Joseph Cook
I'm not just that, I feel like I'm decent at world building and creating the plot, I've got around 10 years worth of composing experience and I'm acceptable at creating pixel art/animations.
The thing is, I can't get my head around coding. And it's damn difficult to find a coder that is willing to work on a passion project.
Commissioning programmers is really expensive, since most games have a long dev cycle.
And I'd probably need an artist too, for CGs and character design. It's all so bothersome.
Ian Watson
I've spent about 6 months working on a stupid fucking mapbuilding system that calculates an AI navigation grid by placing a character at every grid point on the map and then moving them in each direction to test if it can walk there or not, and it's finally nearing completion
Levi Wilson
please look up the A* pathfinding algorithm before you continue to waste your time
or Djikstra Maps
Jackson Perez
I feel you, man. Just having fun. Lord knows I've got my own share of ideas well above my skillset. That said, I will say that I have indeed seen project threads in some circles that really did leave me thinking "So... what do YOU actually do aside from just being the 'creator'?" Not quite as much for vidya, but that sort of thing is out there.
Wyatt Moore
I'm writing the system that builds the grid that pathfinding algorithms run through, I'm not writing a pathfinding algorithm

UBI when?
Henry Allen
Yeah I get that, I just feel like games are such a complex media, it's a mystery for me how people like Toby Fox are able to grind through all the work for 4 years without getting bored or discouraged.
Especially since those are mostly passion projects, you won't earn a dime and will be forced to put all that work in when you should be resting from work.
Working with a team sounds fun and is generally a good thing though, perhaps I need to make more of an effort to find people to work with. For some reason, I do despite working on other people's ideas if I'm not fully convinced of them, which makes it even more difficult.

When you have a passion for what you're doing you don't get bored
Jacob Nguyen
I'm certainly no expert, but I'd dare to say that just because something gets done, that doesn't mean the creator didn't have periods of boredom or discouragement along the way. Been working on a non-vidya passion project on and off (mostly on) for three years now, and I can certainly say that such periods have befallen me. Not so much boredom, if you're really passionate about it, though.
Isaac Lee
That's a really retarded statement. Game dev is made out of so many elements, it's only human that some aspects of it may be to your dislike, may it be the art, music or coding part, something will drag you down.
And even if you are above that, your interest change with time. Committing to a 3-4-year project and sticking to it requires more than just passion for game dev itself, it needs incredible discipline.
There are multiple cases of great artists, writer and musicians who merely got bored with something they were working on and discarded it. Just because I got passion for game dev, that doesn't mean this passion needs to be channeled into one single project that is going to be finished.
Brayden Williams
>That's a really retarded statement
not really, I've been working on the same game for 10 years and I haven't gotten bored
I threw away hundreds of games before this one though
William Green
>that doesn't mean the creator didn't have periods of boredom or discouragement along the way
to yanderedev's credit at least he's kept at it for the past decade even though he's too retarded to have learned anything over that time
Nicholas Johnson
>10 years
no offense, but are you sure you haven't created 10 different games just under the name of a single one?
I can't imagine a game not being finished after being worked on for this amount of time, except the creator has not even remotely a grasp of what takes how long to implement into the game and gets lost along the way.
Owen Morgan
Making games on your own takes a long time and I haven't been sitting here working 40 hour work weeks for 10 years

Fuck Hero:
Make a Frets on Fire mod with vaginas and assholes for notes (fingering for double notes and slaps for open notes) and get 3 girls with colored outfits laying on all fours side by side.
Ethan Bennett
Well how many hours a week do spend with it then?
Justin Cook
Really hard to estimate seeing it's not regular and I'm not timing myself when I do
5 or 10 maybe on average
It's more like I spend months off and then months on doing a normal work day
Jaxon Scott
I'll make a pornhub account based around this idea and become super famous as the fuck hero

How the fuck do you get your 2d sprites to rotate like this?
Landon White
If I starting coding this way I would have never learned how to code.
Nathan Barnes
I made a command line hangman app, what do I win?

I am wrapping my head around how to make webm related.
I am thinking of making a porn game but don't know if I should do it.
I'm unsure if I can make 3D look good.

Eli Peterson
Man... I can't help but think there's probably a pretty distinct line in the sand between people who would use the free time from essentially unlimited income to get a lot of shit done vs. those would use it to do fuck all for the rest of their lives.

Never made my own game but I have done music for a game currently being worked on. I really need to find a new music job of some sort. Here's some samples of my own music:

I have no idea how to make sprites or backgrounds or do any art at all
Adrian Bailey
1. take somebody else's art that you like
2. try to recreate it
3. if all else fails, plagiarize and change some shit around
